By far my favourite Brad Jones's film, perhaps even one of my favourite comedies of all time. Even though all the jokes are for a different generation, I could still connect with each character so well; each gamer regardless of their generation can relate to the characters. Besides as an Angry Video Game Nerd fan as well I managed to get the jokes Very Happy

There's few things more romantic than Custer's Revenge Wink

I'll have to agree, my favourite of Brad's films I've seen thus far, at least writing-wise. I was kinda bugged by the camerawork at first but actually, the amateurishness of it is pretty fitting to the theme of the film. The characters and acting in Game Boys are top-notch.

Not really a main part of the movie but I loved the way that they made up new ways to play old games like Goldeneye. Me and my buddies used to do that back in the day. Kind of a shame that modern games don't really lend themselves to that kind of thing anymore.

The film wasn't my favorite. It was probably due to me hating romantic comedies. It did have its funny moments however, and I never felt the urge to turn it off.

I've watched all of Brads movies, including his short series Hooker. (I would like to see more shorts)
But this, has to be his best movie--maybe it just just me. But I don't know, I had so much fun watching it. Very Happy

I loved this movie. It esp. speaks out to me as a gamer.

Well I finally got around to watching it and I must agree with most people: it simply is a good movie! It manages to glue viewers to their seats even with a simple story, limited budget and lack of '' professional '' actors. And if a movie can do that, you know it's good. I'm glad to be on board and see your film-making career progress Brad, keep it up!
